Deviation Actions
Well, I WAS going to send in to deviant art's christmas card thing this year and put about two dozen other deviants' names on there so they'd each get a free month as a christmas present, buuuuuuuuut... The deadline's the 17th, which means I needed to have them in the mail today to get there on time. And alas, since last Wednesday, everyone in my house has been tag-team vomiting. So... Sorry everyone. Maybe next year.
Flappy Flicky mini dev log
I missed doing this live, but y'all probably would have been sick of me by now. When I was a kid, I took a VHS box of Disney's Fantasia and a piece of paper, sat down, and attempted to duplicate the frame of the alligator dancing with the hippo. "Okay, this is kinda oval shaped... This line goes out about twice as far... This line connects here... There's a curve at the end..."

They taught you things like perspective, and shading a sphere, and color families, and how to draw still life
Wake Up: Shipping Can Hurt
So there's this image getting retweeted about OCxCanon isn't hurting anyone. GUESS WHAT? Yeah, it is. I saw the retweet and said “I’m not getting involved”, hit “mute this person” and moved on. Then I went and did errands. It continued to gnaw at me. So here I am, back home, with my two cents. I have an OC I ship with a canon character. So I’m for it. BUT. PLEASE, all caps, PLEASE do not perpetuate that it “doesn’t hurt anyone”. Just because a group of people can collectively decide something does NOT make it a truth. My neighbor and her family are all convinced the world is flat, but that doesn’t make it true. The fact of the matter is, seeing other people’s OCs interacting with canon characters in romantic ways, in flirtatious ways, in sensual ways, and in sexual ways CAN BE mentally and emotionally damaging to some fans. So saying it “does no harm” is completely false. By everyone jumping on the bandwagon of “yay! More OCxCanon!” the amount of it in certain fandoms has
